This is an amazing, and amazingly simple song.  I am 100% on the chords but only 98% on the lyrics.
Seriously, you will see my questionable lyrics.  WTF is he saying there?  Anyone?
GA steady run of one night stands, from one town to the Dnext
How long has this been going on, can’t even start to Gguess
Most the time I feel alrightG7, with the life I chose to Clead
DTonight I’m not myself at all, so pardoGn me
From Wichita to Arkansas, and every mile in bDetween
A lady friend in every town, waiting for the phone to Gring
I know what you’re thinking now, G7and yes at times it’s like Ca dream
DIt’s getting late and I’m away, so pardGon me
EmPardon me, then if I Bmcry
CPardon me, if you donD’t mind
(Regular verse during the sweet ass ((but simple)) country-ass guitar twang thing that goes on during 
this particular solo)
/  G   D/  D   G/
GI wouldn’t change a single thing, G7oh as crazy as it Cseems
DTonight if I should fall apart, pardoGn me
DTonight if I should fall apart, pardoGn me
DTonight if I should fall apart, pardoGn me
Repeat, as needed.
